User Reviews

  • I run 3.4.0 (ncurses one only) somewhat regularly. Have to hack to get it to compile in linux but it will. (have to hack src to win game - no surprise check the name of the game!) Few bugs despite author's warnings, very playable. Little story line but many archaic myths given :) HOWEVER: you need a script to backup last save and or restore it: because game overwrites/deletes saves.
  • Nice Work
  • Rogue-likes at its best! Rarely found such a hole to sink my time in. Every new run is really fun!
  • An excellent game. I'll hack it.
  • This is one of the best games that I have ever played, and I know that it will always provide a challenge and entertainment when I grow tired of newer games. It's just a shame it hasn't been updated in a while.
